Monday, 9 November Parade
This week will be conducted virtually. Please ensure to be logged into the google classroom ready to go for 19:00 (7PM).
We will be doing a “Remembrance Dog Tag” Activity for Remembrance Day this year. This project was introduced last week and presentations will be done during our virtual parade.
Remembrance Dog Tag Project
On Monday Nov 2, 2020 a number of Remembrance Dog Tags will be displayed, cadets can choose a dog tag of a fallen Canadian Solder.
Cadets will have one week to research their solder and then present their findings to their fellow cadets during our virtual parade on Nov 9, 2020. Cadets may also choose to research a relative or member of their community.
Cadets can use internet or other resources to gather information about their soldier:

Remembrance Day
Remembrance Day across Canada will be very different this year. Our Commanding Officer has ordered that Cadets and Officers are not to participate in any Remembrance Day events. This includes Remembrance Day at your school.
You may participate as a student or citizen, but you cannot wear your uniform.,
Monday 16 and 23 Nov. Parades – VIRTUAL
Due to events out of our control, our parade night on 16 and 23 November will be virtual. We will proceed with our scheduled classes. Please be logged in to the Google Classroom for 19:00 (7PM) Instructors, please prepare your lessons to be taught virtually.
Fundraising – Car Raffle Tickets
Cadets were given raffle tickets last week. As previously mentioned, no Cadets or Officers are authorized to participate in squadron fundraising at this time. This means that the tickets must be sold by the parents this year.
This is an annual fundraiser for the Air Cadet League but our squadron does get a portion of the sales from the tickets we well.
books, unsold tickets and money are due back by 1 February, 2020. All lost/ not returned tickets must be paid for.
